Trump signed an AI executive order targeting state laws and promising one national rulebook. Critics warn it could trigger court battles and prolong uncertainty for startups while Congress debates federal rules.
Environmental scientists are increasingly using enormous artificial intelligence models to make predictions about changes in weather and climate, but a new study by MIT researchers shows that bigger models are not always better. The team demonstrates that, in certain climate scenarios, much simpler, physics-based models can generate more accurate predictions than state-of-the-art deep-learning models. Their analysis also reveals that a benchmarking technique commonly used to evaluate machine-learning techniques for climate predictions can be distorted by natural variations in […]
New data confirms Cato scholar David Bier’s report that DHS publicly dismissed as “made up”: 71% of ICE arrests in early October had no criminal convictions, and 45% had no convictions or even pending charges. lead , , The data—directly from ICE—shows arrests of non-criminals have surged 585% year-over-year while ICE ignores nearly 500,000 removable immigrants with actual convictions. You can read Bier’s full analysis here. His previous data can be found here. If you’d like to speak with Bier, […]
OpenAI just launched GPT-5.2, a frontier model aimed at developers and professionals, pushing reasoning and coding benchmarks as it races Google’s Gemini 3 while grappling with compute costs and no generator.
Large language models generate text, not structured data.
Chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude have experienced a meteoric rise in usage over the past three years because they can help you with a wide range of tasks. Whether you’re writing Shakespearean sonnets, debugging code, or need an answer to an obscure trivia question, artificial intelligence systems seem to have you covered. The source of this versatility? Billions, or even trillions, of textual data points across the internet. Those data aren’t enough to teach a robot to be […]
After a years-long battle, the European Commission’s “Chat Control” plan, which would mandate mass scanning and other encryption-breaking measures, at last codifies agreement on a position within the Council of the EU, representing EU States. The good news is that the most controversial part, the forced requirement to scan encrypted messages, is out. The bad news is there’s more to it than that. Chat Control has gone through several iterations since it was first introduced, with the EU […]
